Re: Simulation of Gas Attacks?
Exactly because "everyone" trained for it the casualties in the front lines would be minimal (probably a LOT LESS than a standard artillery strike!) and adding a whole new mechanic, weapon class, etc probably wouldn't be worth the development time and effort for a weapon that few countries - nevermind players - would ever use!
In reality, with the possible exception of the WWI-like trench warfare of some of the Iraq-Iran war, it has only ever been used on untrained and unequipped civilians...
